I went with red, white and blue colors for this week's Penny Black Saturday Challenge. The Penny Black stamp is called Kisses and it's available at Stamper's Dream. I stamped the image four times....once on the cream base, once on the blue star DP, and twice on MME Bella Bella French Flea Market DP (the backside which is cream with a light tan sanded pattern). I cut out the bow and tag from one of the MME images, colored the bow and ribbon with a light blue Prisma pencil and blended it with Gamsol, added some Silver Stickles to it, and paper pieced it over the gift. Then I cut out just the tag from the second stamped MME image and popped that up on foam tape over the other one. I added some May Arts silver cord through the tag and bow. The kraft mat behind the main image is also up on foam tape.
Here's a close-up so you can see the dimension and sparkle (remember, you can click on all my photos to make them bigger) ...
I wish you all a very FUN and SAFE holiday!!
